forbidden city(紫禁城)

(in front of the meridian gate)

ladies and gentlemen:

i am pleased to serve as your guide today.

this is the palace museum; also know as the purple forbidden city. it is the largest and most well reserved imperial residence in china today. under ming emperor yongle, construction began in 1406. it took 14years to build the forbidden city. the first ruler who actually lived here was ming emperor zhudi. for five centuries thereafter, it continued to be the residence of23 successive emperors until 1911 when qing emperor puyi was forced to abdicate the throne .in 1987, the united nations educational, scientific and cultural organization recognized the forbidden city was a world cultural legacy.

it is believed that the palace museum, or zi jin cheng (purple forbidden city), got its name from astronomy folklore, the ancient astronomers divided the constellations into groups and centered them around the ziwei yuan(north star). the constellation containing the north star was called the constellation of heavenly god and star itself was called the purple palace. because the emperor was supposedly the son of the heavenly gods, his central and dominant position would be further highlighted the use of the word purple in the name of his residence. in folklore, the term ”an eastern purple cloud is drifting” became a metaphor for auspicious events after a purple cloud was seen drifting eastward immediately before the arrival of an ancient philosopher, laozi, to the hanghu pass. here, purple is associated with auspicious developments. the word jin (forbidden) is self-explanatory as the imperial palace was heavily guarded and off-explanatory as the imperial palace was heavily guarded and off-limits to ordinary people.

the red and yellow used on the palace walls and roofs are also symbolic. red represents happiness, good fortune and wealth. yellow is the color of the earth on the loess plateau, the original home of the chinese people. yellow became an imperial color during the tang dynasty, when only members of the royal family were allowed to wear it and use it in their architecture.

the forbidden city is rectangular in shape. it is 960 meters long from north to south and 750 meter wide from east west. it has 9,900 rooms under a total roof area 150,000 square meters .a 52-meter-wide-moat encircles a 9.9-meter—high wall which encloses the complex. octagon —shaped turrets rest on the four corners of the wall. there are four entrances into the city: the meridian gate to the south, the shenwu gate(gate of military prowess) to the north, and the xihua gate(gate of military prowess) to the north, and the xihua gate(western flowery gate )to the west ,the donghua (eastern flowery gate) to the east.

manpower and materials throughout the country were used to build the forbidden city. a total of 230,000 artisans and one million laborers were employed. marble was quarried from fangshan country mount pan in jixian county in hebei province. granite was quarried in quyang county in hebei province. paving blocks were fired in kilns in suzhou in southern china. bricks and scarlet pigmentation used on the palatial walls came from linqing in shandong province .timber was cut ,processed and hauled from the northwestern and southern regions.

the structure in front of us is the meridian gate. it is the main entrance to the forbidden city. it is also knows as wufenglou(five-phoenix tower). ming emperors held lavish banquets here on the 15th day of the first month of the chinese lunar year in hornor of their counties .they also used this place for punishing officals by flogging them with sticks.

qing emperors used this building to announce the beginning of the new year. qing emperor qianglong changed the original name of this announcement ceremony from ban li(announcement of calendar)to ban shou(announcement of new moon )to avoid coincidental association with another emperor` s name, hongli, which was considered a taboo at that time. qing dynasty emperors also used this place to hold audience and for other important ceremonies. for example,when the imperial army returned victoriously from the battlefield ,it was here that the emperor presided over the ceremony to accept prisoners of war.

(after entering the meridian gate and standing in front of the five marble bridges on golden water river)

now we are inside the forbidden city.before we start our tour, i would like to briefly introduce you to the architectural patterns befour us .to complete this solemn, magnificent and palatial complex, a variety of buildings were arranged on a north-south axis, and 8-kilometer-long invisible line that has become an inseparable part of the city of beijing. the forbidden city covers roughly one –third of this central axis. most of the important building in the forbidden city weree arranged along this line. the design and arrangement of the palaces reflect the solemn dignity of the royal court and rigidly –stratified feudal system.

the forbidden city is divided into an outer and an inner count.we are now standing on the southernmost part of the outer count. in front of us lies the gate of supreme harmony .the gate is guarded by a pair of bronze lions ,symbolizing imperial power and dignity. the lions were the most exquisite and biggest of its kind. the one on the east playing with a ball is a male, and ball is said to represent state unity. the other one is a female. underneath one of its fore claws is a cub that is considered to be a symbol of perpetual imperial succession. the winding brook before us is the golden water river. it functions both as decoration and fire control .the five bridges spanning the river represent the five virtues preached by confucius :benevolence, righteousness, rites, intellence and fidelity. the river takes the shape of a bow and the north-south axis is its arrow. this was meant to show that the emperors ruled the country on behalf of god.

(in front of the gate of supreme harmony)

the forbidden city consists of an outer countyard and an inner enclosure. the out count yard covers a vast space lying between the meridian gate and the gate of heavenly purity. the “three big halls” of supreme harmony, complete harmony and preserving harmony constitute the center of this building group. flanking them in bilateral symmetry are two groups of palaces: wenhua (prominent scholars) and wuying (brave warriors) . the three great halls are built on a spacious “h”-shaped, 8-meter-high, triple marble terrace, each level of the triple terrace is taller than the on below and all are encircled by marble balustrades carved with dragon and phoenix designs. there are three carved stone staircases linking the three architectures .the hall of supreme harmony is also the tallest and most exquisite ancient wooden-structured mansion in all of china. from the palace of heavenly purith northward is what is known as the inner court, which is also built in bilaterally symmetrical patterns. in the center are the palace of heavenly purity, the hall of union and peace and palace of earthly tranquility, a place where the emperors lived with their families and attended to state affairs. flanking these structures are palaces and halls in which concubines and princes lived. there are also three botanical gardens within the inner count, namely, the imperial garden, caning garden and quailing garden. an inner golden water river flows eastwardly within the inner court. the brook winds through three minor halls or palaces and leads out of the forbidden city. it is spanned by the white jade bridge. the river is lined with winding, marble –carved balustrades. most of the structures within the forbidden city have yellow glazed tile roofs.

aside from giving prominence to the north-south axis, other architectural methods were applied to make every group of palatial structures unique in terms of terraces, roofs, mythical monsters perching on the roofs and colored, drawing patterns. with these, the grand contour and different hierarchic spectrum of the complex were strengthened. folklore has it that there are altogether 9,999 room-units in the forbidden city. since paradise only has 10,000 rooms, the son of heaven on earth cut the number by half a room. it is also rumoured that this half –room is located to the west of the wenyuange pavilion (imperial library). as a matter of fact, although the forbidden city has more than 9,000 room-units, this half-room is nonexistent .the wenyuange pavilion is a library where “si ku quan shu”- china `s first comprehensive anthology-was stored.

(after walking past the gate of supreme harmony)

ladies and gentlemen, the great hall we are approaching is the hall of supreme harmony, the biggest and tallest of its king in the forbidden city. this structure covers a total building space of 2,377 square meters, and is know for its upturned, multiple counterpart eaves . the hall of supreme harmony sits on a triple “h”-shaped marble terrace the is 8meters high and linked by staircases. the staircase on the ground floor has 21 steps while the middle and upper stairways each have 9.

the construction of the hall of supreme harmony began in 1406. it burned down three times and was severely damaged once during a mutiny. the existing architecture was built during the qing dynasty. on the corners of the eaves a line of animal-nails were usually fastened to the tiles. these animal-nails were later replace with mythical animals to ward off evil spirits. there are altogether 9 such fasteners on top of this hall. the number nine was regarded by the ancients to be the largest numeral accessible to man and to which only the emperors were entitled.

there was a total of 24 successive emperors during the ming and qing dynasties who were enthroned here. the ball was also used for ceremonies which marked other great occasions: the winter solstice, the chinese lunar new year, the emperor` s birthday, conferral of the title of empress, the announcement of new laws and policies, and dispatches of generals to war .on such occasions, the emperor would hold audience for his court officials and receive their tributes.

this area is called the hall of supreme harmony square, which covers a total of 30,000 square meters, without a single tree or plant growing here, this place inspires visitors to feel its solemnity and grandeur. in the middle of the square there is a carriageway that was reserved for the emperor. on both sides of the road the groud bricks were laid in a special way seven layers lengthwise and eight layers crosswise, making up fifteen layers in all. the purpose of this was to prevent anyone from tunneling his way into the palace. in the count yard there are iron vats for storing water to fight fires. in the whole complex there are altogher 308 water vats. in wintertime, charcoal was burned underneath the vats to keep the water from freezing .why so vast a square? it was designed to impress people with the hall` s grandeur and vastness. imagine the following scene. under the clear blue sky, the yellow glazed tiles shimmered as the cloud-like layers of terrace, coupled with the curling veil of burning incense, transformed the hall of supreme harmony into a fairyland. whenever major ceremonies were held, the glazed, crane-shaped candleholders inside the hall would be it, and incense and pine branches burnt in front of the hall. when the emperor appeared, drums were beaten and musical instrument played. civilian officials and generals would kneel know in submission.

the last qing emperor puyi assumed the throne in 1908, at the age of three, his father carried him to the throne. at the start of the coronation, the sudden drum-beating and loud music caught the young emperor unprepared .he was so scared that he kept crying and shouting,”i don’t want to stay here. i want to go home.” his father tried to soothe him, saying, ”it` all soon be finished .it` all soon be finished ”the ministers present at the event considered this incident inauspicious. coincidentally, the qing dynasty collapsed three years later and there with concluded china `s feudal system that had lasted for more than 2,000 years.

(on the stone terrace of the hall of supreme harmony)

this is a bronze incense burner. in it incense made of sandalwood would be burnt on important occasions. there are altogether 18 incense burners, representing all of the provinces under the rule of the sing monarchs. on either side of the hall, 4 bronze water-filled vats were placed in case of fire. next to the terrace on either side, there is a bronze crane and tortoise, symbols of longevity. this copper-cast grain measure is called ”jialiang.” it served as the national standard during the qing dynasty. it was meant to show that the imperial ruler were just and open to rectification. on the other side there is a stone sundial, an ancient timepiece. the jialiang and the sundial were probably meant to show what the emperor represented: that he was the only person who should possess the standards of both measure and time.

in the very forefront of the hall of supreme harmony , there are 12 scarlet , round pillars supporting the roof. the hall is 63 meters from east to west and 37 meters from north to south, it is 35 meters in height. in front of this architechture, there stands a triple terrace with five staircases leading up to the main entrance .it has 40 gold doors and 16 gold-key windows with colored drawings on the pillars and beams. in the middle of the hall, a throune carved with 9 dragons sits on a 2-meter-high platform. behind the throne there is a golden screen and in front of it, there is a imperial desk . the flanks are decorated with elephants, luduan(a legendary beast), cranes, and incense barrels. the elephant carries a vase on its back that holds five cereals(i. e. rice, two kinds of millet, wheat and beans),which was considered a symbol of prosperity. as ancient legend has it that luduan can travel 18,000 li (9,000 kilometers )in one day and knows all languages and dialects. only to a wise adjust monarch will this beast be a guardian.

the hall of supreme harmony is also popularly known as jinluan dian (gold bell hall or the throne hall). the floor of the hall is laid with bricks that turn it into a smooth, fine surface as if water has been sprinkled on it .the so-called golden brick, in fact, has nothing to do with gold. reserved exclusively for the construction of the royal court, it was made in a secretive, and complex way, and, when struck, sounds like the clink of a gold bar. each brick was worth the market price of one dan (or one hectoliter ) of rice.

the hall is supported by a total of 72 thick pillars .of these, 6 are carved in dragon patterns and painted with gold and surround the throne. above the very center of this hall there is a zaojing, or covered ceiling, which is one of the specialities of china `s ancient architure. in the middle of the ceiling is a design of a dragon playing with a ball inlaid with peals. this copper ball, hollow inside and covered with mercury, is known as the xuanyuan mirror and is thought to be made xuanyuan, a legendary monarch dating back to remote antiquity. the placing of the caisson above the throne is meant to suggest that all of china` s successive emperors are zuanyuan` s descendants and hereditary heirs. now you might have noticed that the xuanyuan mirror is not directly above the throne. why? it is rumored that yuan shikai, a self-acclaimed warlord-turned emperor moved the throne further back because he was afraid that the mirror might fall on him .in 1916 when yuan shikai became emperor, he removed the original throne with a western-style, high-back chair. after the foundation of the people` s republic of china in 1949 the throne was found in a shabby furniture warehouse. it repaired and returned to the hall.

(leading the tourist to the bronze vats either on the east or the west)

the water vats in front of the palaces or house were called “menhai,” or sea before the door by the ancient chinese. they believed that with a sea by the door, fire could not wreak havoc. the vats served both as a decoration and as a fire extinguisher. they were kept full of water all year round.

during the qing dynasty, they were altogether 308 vats in the palace enclosure. they were made of gilt bronze or iron. of couse, the gilt bronze vats were of the best quality. when the allied forces (britain, germany, france, russia, the united states, italy, japan and austria) invaded beijing in 1900 under the pretext of suppressing the boxer rebellion, the invaders ransacked the imperial compound and scraped and gold off the vats with their bayonets. during the japanese occupation of beijing, many vats were trucked away by the japanese to be made into bullets .

(in front of the hall of complete harmony)

the square architecture before us is called the hall of complete harmony. it served as an antechamber. the emperor came here to meet with his countiers and add his final touches to the prayers which would be read at the ancestral temple. the seeds, snowers and prayer intended for spring sowing were also examined here. the two qing sedan chairs here on display were used for traveling within the palace during the reign of emperor qianlong.

(in front of the hall f preserving harmony)

this is the hall of preserving harmony. during the qing dynasty, banquets were held here on new year` s eve in honour of mongolian and northwestern china` s xingjiang princes and ranking officials. the emperor also dinned here with his new son-in-law on the wedding day. imperial examinations were also held here once every three years. during the ming and qing dynasties, there were three levels of exams: the county and prefectural level, the provincial level and national level. the national exam was presided over by the emperor. the civil service exam in ancient china started during the han dynasty. it served the purpose of recruiting confucian scholars to the ministers and high officials. during the tang and qing dynasties reinstituted and ancient system. once every three years, three hundred scholars from all over the country came to beijing and took exams for three day and night. this system was abolished in 1905.

(behind the hall of preserving harmony)

this is the largest stone carving in the palace . it is 16.73 meters long, 3.07 meters wide and 1.7 meters thick .it weighs about 200 tons. the block was quarried in fangshan county, roughly 70 kilometers away. to transport such a huge block to beijing, laborers dug wells along the roadside half a kilometer apart, and used the groundwater to make a road of ice in the winter. rolling blocks were used in the summer. in 1760, emperor qianlong of the qing dynasty ordered the carving of the existing cloud and dragon design in place of the old one which dated back to the ming dynasty.

behind the central hall were the living accommodation of 8 successive qing emperors .three of them actually passed away here. the side rooms flanking the hall were reserved for empresses and concubines. now let` s continue with our tour. it will take us to the hall of heavenly purity , the hall of union and peace ,the palace of earthly tranquility, and the imperial garden.

Here is the original xishan hill arch fans, former reason springs to assemble a lowland swamp.

In 1153 AD, after gold yanjing (as) in its capital, gold master yan hong light out the chicken water land, built in the jinshan palace. More from the west to the aim of yuquan hill spring note at the foot of the jinshan, make it become a plain, storage called the golden stream. This is the precursor of the kunming lake today. To the yuan dynasty, to increase the golden stream of water will be needed to supply the Kyoto grain transportation, water conservancy, guo shoujin guided ChangPing County white water from springs and yuquan hill into the mooring floating village. Jinshan was renamed urn hill, lake was renamed urn hill berth, the surface than had previously been expanded. In the Ming dynasty, white village water channel (white floating weir) disrepair, the water dried up, urn hill parking area is narrow. Emperor qianlong in the qing dynasty carved deep to expand mooring and urn hill, become larger than when Ming dynasty triple giant leaching, the beginning of the kunming lake.

This name, is the emperor that is applied in the qianlong emperor in changan capital kunming pool practicing wenhuan allusions. The name used today. After the yuan dynasty Beijing its capital for grain transportation, presided over by the water conservancy experts guo shoujin, upstream water development, changping along the mountain spring water and running water into the lake, became mostly in the city of grain transportation by using the reservoir. Many planting lotus in the lake in the Ming dynasty, around the paddy planting rice, lake have temples, pavilions, wins again, like the jiangnan scenery, hence there are "west lake", "west lake scenery" of reputation.

MingWu of land god, Ming has been on a boat to go fishing for fun here. Qing qianlong built qingyi garden, the lake will develop, become the size of the now, and take the emperor in changan kunming digging pool exercises war story, named kunming lake, on the lake every summer training exercise. Kunming lake on the main subject is west dike and six bridge, east dike, the west embankment in the south lake island, the marble seventeen-arch bridge which and so on. Flow around the longevity hill river at the foot of the mountain, known as the lake.

首先映入眼帘的是一座帖金彩绘，翠顶株楹的仿清牌楼，高大雄伟，上面的彩画叫做旋子彩画，上书“津门故里”四字，它肯定地指出了古文化街附近一带是820__年前的一处聚落，当时统治北方的金人在这里建立天津城市最在的监置——直沽寨。今日的天津就是以这一带为原始中心区域，逐渐开发拓展形成的，六、七百年间始终是天津城市商业繁华地段，对天津地区的开发起过难以估量的作用，称作津门故里是当之无愧的。

好，请大家随我一同走进这条街吧，大家注意到没有这条街的许多店铺门面檐下、枋间都有一幅幅彩画，这些都是开光清式苏画，大多是人物故事。我们来看一下集珍阁下枋间的彩画，上面画的是《三国演义》中的8幅画，有“桃园三结义”、“虎牢关三英战吕布”、“凤仪亭吕布戏貂婵”、“当阳拒曹”等，从西蜀角度着重刻画了刘备、关羽、张飞三人的忠义英勇的故事。我们在看对面梨园阁枋间，上面画的是古典戏曲名著《西湘记》，描写的是崔莺莺与张君瑞的恋爱故事。

好，我们往前走，边走边看，每间店铺上都有彩画，每幅彩画都有一个故事。好了，现在我们已经来到了宫前广场。著名的天后宫就坐落在这里了，在进入天后宫之前，我们先来看看对面的戏楼，这座戏楼是天津最早的露天舞台，也是天津最早的群众自娱自乐场所。戏楼是木结构楼台式建筑，坐东朝西，东通海河，西向宫前广场，上面是戏台，下面是通道，还可以过马车。原先的戏楼距离天后宫只有5米，周围都是低矮的平房，显得拥挤杂乱，__时戏楼被拆毁，我们现在看到的戏楼是1985年时重建的，高12米，宽10米，进深11.5米，抱柱贴金楹联上写：“望海阔天空千帆迎晓日，喜风清云淡百戏祝丰年”。在过去，戏楼是酬神演出的主要场所，没年农历3月23日天后娘娘华诞这一天，酬神演出就达到了高潮，后来日本侵略军占领天津后，戏楼终止了酬神演出活动。

好，现在我们转过身来看看，天后宫山门前有两棵高大旗杆，直插云宵，格外引人注目，这就是幡杆，高26米，幡杆由若干根铜糙木和铁糙木接成，外层缠麻抹灰，再涂上油漆，经冬历夏，坚固结实。据说幡杆初立时，一方面挂灯，为往来三岔河口的漕船导航，另一方面则作为天后宫的陪衬物，使整个建筑群显得错落有致，气势不凡。后来便为农历每月初一、十五进香及庙会期间专门悬挂天后封号长幡使用。

请大家继续往前走，现在我们看到的就是天后宫的主体建筑了。天津地方民间素称天后为“娘娘”，所以天后宫又被称作娘娘宫。它始建于元代，以后各朝各代均多次重修加固。大家知道我国寺庙大多坐北朝南，可是，天后宫却是坐东朝西的，这是为什么呢?因为津门三岔河是漕运中的必经之地，既是河运的起点，又是海运的终点，成为河海联运的中转站。当时航海技术不发达，漕船经常葬身鱼腹，为满足船民、商贾及政府官员在漕运中所需要的精神寄托，祈求海神天后对航行的庇佑，就在海河西岸建起了天后宫，庙门朝东，直面海河，南来北往的船只，都抛锚停泊，进庙烧香。有些船只因没时间或某种原因无法靠岸，船民、商贾也可以在船上朝拜天后，祈求平安。这样，既满足了登岸信徒的民俗崇拜要求，也顺应了当时繁忙的航运需求，满足了无法登岸信徒的民俗崇拜要求。

我们现在看到的是山门，为砖木混合结构，九脊歇山青瓦顶，有三门，中间为圆形拱门，取意古代说法“天是圆的”，两旁为长方形便门。门额上刻有“敕见天后宫”四字，中间拱门内有“护佑三津”的匾额。天后宫初建时并无此山门，这坐山门是乾隆20__年增建的。

大家随我进去，迎面为木结构的两柱一楼式的牌楼，左右两边分别是鼓楼和钟楼。走过牌楼，展现在我们面前的是前殿，殿内中间供奉的是护法神王灵官，两侧为“千里眼”、“顺风耳”和“加恶”、“加善”。

我们现在穿过前殿，来到了正殿，这里是供奉天娘娘的地方。坐在正中的就是天后了，我们前面说过天后娘娘可以保佑过往船只的安全，那么天后到底是什么神呢?既然称天后，必是女神无疑了，她不是玉帝、西王母那些空想编造出来的神位，而是依据实有的人和某些传说夸张附会而成的。

史书上说她姓林，宋代福建莆田湄洲岛人。因为出生后一段时间内不会哭，故起名林默。她她生长在海岛，习于水性。相传她自幼聪慧，15岁便精通医理为人治病，决心终生行善济人，同时她又熟悉水性，常渡海救助海上遇险的渔民，最终不幸被台风夺去了年轻的生命，死时年方27。又相传，在其死后显灵救助难民的事情时有发生，于是海上的富商纷纷拿钱修建妈祖庙，祈求渡海平安。当然这也都是些传说。不过，在宋代，我国的航海事业虽有较大发展，但在当时造船和航海技术的条件下，海上安全是无法保障的广大的航海人员幻想有一种超人力量来保佑他们平安地飘洋过海。林默的一些动人传说，自然很容易被选中作为超人力量的偶像。关于天后的传说起初只流传于浙、闽一带，后逐渐被官府承认，宋朝时先后被封为“灵惠夫人”、“灵惠妃”元朝时被封为“天妃”，到清朝时候才被封为“天后”可见封号逐步加升。

穿过正殿，我们来到了藏经阁，藏经阁旧称后楼，是砖木结构的二层楼阁，建于明朝，后经多次修整。

穿过藏经阁，现在我们看到的是启圣祠，也就是后殿，原为祭祀天后的父母的地方，后来作为存放皇会期间天后娘娘出巡的木雕轻像的地方。在天后宫内两侧的厢房是天津民俗博物馆，里面介绍了天津城、天后宫及皇会的兴起变迁。从侧面见证了“先有天后宫，后有天津城”这一说法。同时还陈列着明代天津城砖，清代漕运模型人，婚俗展览等。

Everybody is good! Welcome to sightseeing, as cabinet. I am a scenic docent of , hope that through my explanation, can let everybody to the ancient city of changsha and the massive historical culture as ancient pavilion has a preliminary understanding.

As cabinet are signs and symbols of the ancient city of changsha, changsha is the testimony of history and culture development, ancient times known as "xiaoxiang pavilion, qin and han dynasties city" reputation, as the national AAAA level scenic spots. Because its ley uplift, the auspicious trillion, it has been regarded as a geomantic precious place of changsha. Scenic area was built in 1924, is to protect the ancient city wall with a history of more than 2200 years and 2200 years of history of the ancient attic built in changsha first garden scenic spot.

First of all you see is "embalm wind pavilion" and "lun jian pool". "Cured" is a kind of vanilla, "kaori wind" namely "sweet wind"; Pavilion built in midsummer, pleasant fragrance, all around its name. Red rock cliff "Aaron as" two words, "Aaron" is the similar meaning, "learning" as the mirror, meaning is refers to the water as bright as a mirror. Words taizong account in the proposal making official Wei Zheng died, sadness of leaving "for copper mirror, can is the headgear; with history as a mirror, can know replaced; the looking-glass self, can know the gain and loss" of training, "Aaron as a".

As pavilion is the spirit of chu culture of changsha, changsha is the state council released the first batch of 24 cities in our country one of the famous historical and cultural city, heavenly heart pavilion is a symbol of changsha, witnessed the historical development and changes of the changsha. All the cities in the world history has a city into town, because of the history of the town and city, so the changsha city origin with long history, according to historical records as early as in the shifu, king "of the western zhou dynasty, the changsha city after thousands of years, dont move dont move, dont change, still thrive, a rare in todays cities. Changsha every construction project is likely to dig up a batch of rare and precious cultural relics, such as the western han dynasty mawangdui woman corpse, chow tai bronze ware, cooks floor bamboo slips of The Three Kingdoms, etc... Are legion.

Now you see this piece of strewn at random have the stone forest, is the "historical figures carved stone gallery" scenic area, it is time for us to draw the 33 hunan had outstanding contribution of historical figures, some of them was born in hunan, an official in hunan, including XiangJi 16 people. Yan emperor shen nung, tasted grass bouquet to benefit the people, he later because of eating a "flame grass" (also known as "graceful jessamine herb") plants and xie in hunan, emperor yandi mausoleum in our hunan ZhuZhou tianxinli; Zhu xi, Zhang Shi under the capital city of changsha yuelu academy lecture; Lee Fei, changsha (called tam states) year hunan conciliation, the late southern song dynasty, yuan soldiers in an attack on guarding city changsha 3 hopeless situation, bring the whole family 19th mouth people collective suicide, in order to show the valiant ones; Zeng guofan, hunan hunan assembly of people, the qing daoguang years one of the westernization movement leader, created the "xiang no of xiang army", was crazy to suppress the taiping rebels, after the defeat by twisting forces, but his way of life has always been talk of learning, by later generations, by income more complete works "once Wen Zhenggong; Wei yuan, from longhui, hunan, and puts forward "long skill with barbarians", the Lin zexu, supported by the 50 volumes "sealand disposition, known as the worlds first person, I opened my eyes XiangYin guo song-tao, hunan people, diplomat in the late qing dynasty, to the west in modern China sent the first permanent chiefs, during the missions (Singapore), access to public funds only pay to rent two, and said: "budget before the gentleman to remorse, unfavorable to blame others; hui is the gentleman to suicide, unfavorable in hopes to man", said.

Is engaging you see in front of the pavilion, there are "as whirlwind to heaven, to the party engaging" say, mean as natural began. Please note that the above couplet, top allied "day if sentient days also old," second line is "heart to the selfless heart wide". This is embedded word couplet, poem is orz. Did you see it, by the way, is the name of our scenic area "as", this couplet a cultivate ones morality philosophy in it.

Please look at the other side of the pavilion "chong DE", this plaque for Chiang kai-shek, "fresh call forth the past unforgettable a surprised noon dream, thousands of miles to see sunrise" according to legend for Chiang kai-shek, built for the 1946 memorial for those who died in the anti-japanese, also known as "the fierce pavilion". From September 1939 to December 1941, the Japanese aggressively attack changsha three times, in the ninth theater commander Sir Hsueh yueh as the main body of Chinas armed forces to take the back decisive battle "strategy, strive to resist. Three times in battle, the Japanese were losing from changsha. Changsha become resistance for five years in the history of world war ii hero city, become one of the main positive battlefield of the Chinese Anti-Japanese War stalemate. Because, as cabinet in changsha city high ground, have lost three times as one of the main platforms of our important department. Hero of changsha city undefeated to figure stands in front of the world, and majestic, magnificent ancient city wall, also became the pride of changsha people.

Now everyone viewed from the looks, is built in the Ming dynasty chongzhen years ago, has 400 years of history, as cabinet. Attic for a layer, when he first built qing qianlong built into two layers, in 1774 as a "ku" always read officer wang li degrees also made the repairing as pavilion "; As to the qing dynasty jiaqing years, your academy dean luo funding reconstruction, Ohio, south of the city is now everyone can see three layer, and increase the south and north two attached to the cabinet, make it more grand, magnificent; 14.6 meters high, is now the main pavilion two attached cabinet each 10 meters high, the entire attic imitation Ming and qing dynasties south garden architectural style, "not as pavilion, dont know the ancient changsha." Please follow me together pavilion to visit.

Main pavilion, a layer for the exhibition in one hundred, changsha, changsha one hundred history of the 20th century is shown. First of all, please see the heavenly heart pavilion overlooking a poem, the poem "tam states that" todays changsha. The poem are taken from the good county annals "(the original changsha, good two counties are divided into changsha, as pavilion is a good county), the author YuYi for Ming chongzhen years in Beijing took command, which can be concluded as cabinet as early as 400 years ago stand high above the city. Then take a look at the ancient changsha old topographic map, it is the long and narrow strip, changsha has a picture of a household name, popular pairs: "land and sea chau interstate system boat boat move motionless, as presently live pigeons fly cabinet did not fly", this amphibious continent is j, amphibious continent is about more than 5500 meters long, about 100 meters wide, is the changsha this special geographic landscape. Changsha geological structure on the basis of quartz sandstone, through all the year round external force, make a lot of sand and stone are gathered in the surface, thus changsha placenames origin in "long Fang Zhou, sandy land".

Main cabinet of the second floor has two large relief, one shows the late November 12, 1938, "Wen Xi fire", zhou enlai and then KMT chairman zhang zhizhong to attic inspect the scene of the disaster of hunan province, wuhan, the Japanese open the portal to southern China, Chiang kai-shek to defend the changsha lack of confidence; The order after the yueyang lost, zhang zhizhong in changsha "scorched earth" of the war of resistance against Japan, with their torches as cabinet, put a good carry of changsha city into a ruin, destroyed the city area of 90%, burned more than 3000 people, burns victims of nearly twenty thousand people, the city common people homeless, history says "Wen Xi fire", changsha which is listed as a world war ii one of the most serious city four great destruction. But less than three months, heroic unyielding changsha people and set up a small hut on the ruins of new changsha, with a burning desire to fight the Japanese again, make the Japanese admitted for the first time in all the way the successful cases of the Chinese people do not reproach. Second is shown in July 1930, the red headed by peng dehuai SanJunTuan armed attack changsha, in ShanTing victory stationed in the scene. Hunan liling people at that time li lisans adventurism authorized by the communist international, put forward the strategic thought of "armed to encircle the cities", after the general strength is too wide, the red army and take the initiative to leave changsha.

Why call this building as "pavilion"? According to ancient Chinese star like learning, heaven have 28 stars, including seven southern provinces as "the linnet", in its tail there is a main life "star" in changsha, and attic built after just on the "changsha star" in the sky, as it is the stars in the sky, therefore, formerly known as "star pavilion", is the star of stars, is the ancient worship god, stars "gv 10"; We all know that the ancients has always been advocating dao, original attic to worship the statue of Confucius, mencius and others, the moral "for Kong Mengchuan orthodoxy, for heaven and earth and heart", so the star of stars and change to the heart of the heart. Another story, the qing emperor kangxi years, emperor kangxi to changsha southern found changsha wooden house much more special, very easy to cause HuoHuan, to save the people in distress, and local officials in changsha, changsha is highest, feng shui, the best place to build such a disaster in the town of fire prevention, attic, said "the mind of" son of heaven. Written by scholars in the late qing dynasty Huang Zhaomei yunshan all eyes, all around of fireworks always concerned about "in the name of the union, better generalization for the cabinet in the first place.

Now you see, is the ancient city wall in changsha. In 202 BC, that is, the west five years, emperor gaozu Liu Bangjian han closed his eight major contributor to the king, the changsha Wang Wu rui, has formed ram changsha built the ancient city wall, according to the present 2200 years of history. In the Ming hongwu five years, that is, in 1372 AD, changsha command make Qiu Guang defence, content of the wall for masonry building, the purpose is to strengthen the defense, makes changsha is solid "citizen". Ming scored changsha yellow tiger rate army onishi, the wall had been destroyed; Qing shunzhi eleven years (AD 1654), seduction on the plains of hunan, in changsha, dismantle MingFan fu brick building the wall, to return to the old city walls. Two years qing xianfeng (1852 AD), the walls and damaged by taiping rebels, after successive hunan governor LuoBingZhang, Mao Hongbin repair reinforcement, such as design and additional battery around, the ancient city wall to a pattern of arch ring type in Minnesota. Original ancient city wall is 8.8 kilometers, the north and south long and narrow strip, in 1914, the kuomintang government in order to repair the ring road, retain only 251 meters at present this period survives, as an important witness of changsha history development.

Please look the direction of my finger, this is an important component of the ancient city wall in changsha - "around", also known as the barbican. As the name implies, named after the deep shaped like a half moon, is an ancient riot police, according to the place and the battery. It usually consists of two parts, the long-range artillery is placed above, the following placed close to Tom. In the city as well as storage of ammunition and food with warehouse and the secret to the outside, it are of great value to the research of ancient Chinese military fortifications. Interested friends can visit it.

Tourists friends, everybody in the official kilns are everywhere on the wall. The brick kiln with Ming and qing dynasties, which was the ancient brick factory brand, another is "responsibility" for the Great Wall brick sample.

Now watch, please "changsha fire" phantom imaging, said it was just introduced in 1938 "Wen Xi fire".

Occurs under the ancient city wall of the most famous battle, is "the duke guan war changsha". Chibi war, zhuge liang detachment of the will, and enterprising lingling, guiyang, wuling, changsha county. Guan yu at the gates in changsha war ShouJiang huang zhong, alternate admire: each a 50 rounds the first world war, regardless of the outcome; World war ii, the duke guan "knife meter" and huang zhong up, close the second brother to win and aboveboard, so put huang zhong; Three wars huang zhong cheat, go back to the GuanYuFang three arrows, the first two arrows to close the second brother, also Huang Zhongfang is empty of arrows, in return for first dont kill the grace of huang zhong only shot at guan yus head scarf, this time to turn off the second brother know huang zhong, frighten when hands are off, so today changsha and "fishing knife river". Back to changsha after the satrap han xuan yi huang zhong collaboration, will launch him beheaded. Saved huang zhong wei, han xuan, han xuan for wei, deliberately put the two boots the south and north two places, so today, changsha, and "south, north to take off the boots. Wei yan see through the trick, grasp its kill, the changsha has given "idle lake" (thorn Han Hu). After Wei Yanxian city; Huang zhong home anyway, guan yu, please visit to surrender.

To this end, the interpretation of good, I thank you for your support for my work, I wish you all a pleasant journey, bon voyage!

请大家看这块碑，它高 5 米，宽 1.2米，碑身字体“大明恭睿献皇帝之陵”为嘉靖皇帝亲笔书写。这块碑具有特殊意义，它是整个显陵的名片，对显陵申报世界文化遗产并最终获得通过起了重要的作用，大家看整个碑文的两边均遭到毁坏，唯有这块碑文完好，也无断裂，这不能不说是冥冥之中的天意啊!

让我们来感受一下显陵的恢宏与神奇吧!请大家放目远望，自新红门至陵寝的这条弯曲的龙鳞神道，恰似一条旱龙，龙尾三摆，龙颈三曲，煞是鲜活。新红门与旧红门不在一条中轴线上不正式显示出了龙尾摆动的生气吗?再看九曲河，穿插于旱龙左右尤如一条水龙蜿蜒潜行，与旱龙在内明塘外交汇，形成二龙戏珠之妙。而内明糖则依风水理论“龙气见风则散，遇水则止”。具有藏风聚气、界止龙气流失，象征明代山水永固之意。此水陆二龙的设计，使整个显陵倍具生机与活力!

请大家在看整个陵区的大环境：依据古代风水学“负阴抱阳”、“背山面水”的原则，在这广阔的区域内所有的山体、水系、林木植都被作为陵寝的构成要素来统一布局和安排，以陵区后部的松林山为祖山作为陵寝的构成要素来统一布局和安排建筑，九曲河弯延其间，前面的天子岗为屏山，构成了前朱雀、后玄武、左青龙、右白虎的完美风水格局，形成了人文景观和自然景观的高度和谐统一。显陵不愧为古代建筑与环境美学相结合的天然杰作!

显陵的修建，是中国封建时代对灵魂信仰的集中体现，凝聚着明代中后期的政治思想、道德观念和审美趣味。同时，这种动用国家力量建造的陵墓，也反映了当时的经济状况、科学技术水平和营造工艺水平，是中国丧葬艺术的最高表现形式和建筑典范。

各位贵宾，在你们参观完显陵后，是否也会像联合国世界遗产专家让 ·路易先生那样发出同样的赞叹呢?当然，依显陵之博大，孕藏的文化历史之丰富，是在这短短时间内无法全部了解清楚的，加之我才疏学浅，知识有限，很多地方讲解尚有欠缺。为此，我将加倍努力，争取掌握更多有关显陵的知识，届时，欢迎大家再次来显陵参观游览，我也将为大家再次来显陵参观游览，我也将为大家献上更加精彩的解说。

谢谢大家!祝各位旅途愉快!

Dear visitors, everybody!

I am yangzhou he garden "little academician", today, I take you to visit he garden!!!!!

Now we are going to visit this garden, located in yangzhou ancient canal bank xu ning 77 gate street, is a national key cultural relics protection units. It built in 1883, that is, the nine-year reign of qing emperor guangxu, is a large private garden in yangzhou at the end of a finale. Because the unique architectural style diversity, the compatible, match well of Chinese and western art style, become a classic representative of yangzhou gardens, is known as Chinas first gardens in late qing dynasty.

In fact, the earliest dont call he garden he garden, rather loud call send heights, because the garden owner surnamed he, people used to call it he garden. The ho family and a handful of Chinas modern history of the famous family relationship is very close, the beiyang minister li hongzhang, guangxu emperor is the teacher saying and town of (nai) children and in-laws, and together; And guangxu emperor wun tonghe another more famous teacher (he) as well as the qing court etiquette, zhang zhidong representative of westernization movement, have affinity. What he garden owner zhi 舠 young success, career progression, secretly convey salt industry, also has a huge wealth. What zhi 舠 49 years old, from hubei han Huang Dedao resign as he prowled the yangzhou, invested heavily zhou, build the home garden, swim in one large-scale private gardens.

He garden covers an area of more than 14000 square meters, building area of more than 7000 square meters, building part accounted for 50% of dominated area. Such building density, it is too big for garden, but people in the garden, not crowded, anti think everywhere and moderately, density, small in see big, distinct. This effect, by is the landscape on the architectural layout of quality, made in flat.

He garden whole districts include residential, garden and a small garden on a few parts, is the complete form of private gardens, parts of it already read separately, and interlocking, mutual penetration, form a are different, the tour be convenient to both inside and outside, nature and humanity, match well of Chinese and western living space, the aesthetic needs of the Chinese private gardens and practical function to achieve the perfect combination here.

Long-term since, our country now, contemporary a batch of famous garden experts are to he garden thus any rock-it, praise its unique gardening technique, is "alone" in the jiangnan garden. Also he garden as domestic film and television filming scenes of natural base, "a dream of red mansions", "green grass by the river", "the princess huanzhu" sequel, "the wrong sedan to marry on lang", "heaven tears" and so on nearly radix stemonae content, are all here to absorb a lot of beautiful scenery gardens.

Through the above introduction, I believe you have a preliminary impression of he garden, here, let us to appreciate each Chinas famous jiangnan alone.

He garden in the history of the front door is open in the alley, the south gate of the garden, now as the main entrance to the east gate, is a garden of opening to the outside world. After taking the door in the first place to visit is the eastern part of the back garden. Head on moon gate engraved on the "send the noise hill" MenE, and man is the master personally inscribed YuanMing. "Send the noise" two characters, respectively from the great poet tao yuanming of the eastern "to return the phraseology" in the sentence: "YiNa window to send ao, east gao to ShuXiao." Express the landscape pastoral poet valentine, not colluding with dark officialdom insistence. He garden owner has resigned a cloistered similar experience with tao yuanming, moral self-evident.

Yangzhou no mountains, but in the garden is no mountains, so often used in yangzhou garden flat fold stone to orogeny, "yangzhou to parks, gardens to fold Lin chuang" that is the case. East garden, the most magnificent landscape is on the right side of a mountain for more than 60 m stick wall, it is like embedded in the wall, along the wall to climb all the way, if swim longteng dumpling, stir together, to suppress previously closed high wall and a deep courtyard, into a embrace heaven and earth "mountain city" of the natural mountains and rivers. East gate sidewall mountain is famous of the jiangnan gardens climb mountain building stick wall, also known as Yang sent to stick wall mount. Stick a wall in the mountainside of the mountain, there is a high and low around the stone steps, twists and turns led street, has been reading to the academician childe floor. Through it, we can really grasp the essence of yangzhou stacked stone art.

Turned the exquisitely carved stone folding screen, first open the gate to welcome guests is peony hall. It features and name, from the east wall mount on the top of a brick a mountain. Mountain flower subjects derived from the traditional "blowing peony fung", at first glance seems not new. But look carefully you will find it in many other aspects of idea, layout, composition, art of using saber has distinctive characteristics of the whole picture compensated in see big coincidence, hides the magic close, is a high-quality goods.

Peony hall around the peony pool. Peony is He Yuanyuan flower, garden tear widespread tree peony, peony, breed is various, every year 4, 18 solstice 5, 18, is the annual "yangzhou fireworks in March tourism festival," he garden "swim gardens, reward famous flowers" opening theme fete activity also profusion, when a Cha red yan deeply purple swaying spring scenery, the elegant dress he garden a colorful world.

Peony hall in a hall, north on the construction decoration than more delicate, more gorgeous peony hall, it is the most creative in east garden complex structure from - Fu hin, also called ship hall. Because the modelling of hall like a boat, hall around the ground with pebbles, the paved tiles sparkling water, in the hall in front of a square stone walkway like boarding springboard, hall under low level is like a ships deck, hall hung on the pillars on both sides "flower month masters may visit, the walls for ship" for the home of the couplet, hall on the west side gallery walls inlaid with the present domestic the most preserved between su dongpo calligraphy "projects the placard" sharpening... Every detail and boat, and water, gardening art garden of drought, water is here in perfection.

But the most interesting is not ship building hall, but the story behind the hidden in the landscape architecture. The ship called Fu sea hin hall, is the owner, the symbol of life with the Lord, between the fate of life and the pursuit of associated with some mysterious.

Family originally from anhui wangjiang, one side is a bounded by water on three sides backer, born what zhi 舠 grew up here and ship the indissoluble bond; His name was "zhi 舠", meaning is a ship with vanilla; Twenty years into the official career, when the salt, LiangGuan until jianghan customs supervision, always in dealing with all kinds of transport ships, shipping... What zhi 舠 as jianghan customs supervision, in the process of dealing with westernization is often involved in hua yi the sharp conflict of the vortex, many times and make great efforts to safeguard national sovereignty and national dignity. In the face of the late qing dynasty government corrupt and incompetent he is worried about the long, his patriotic ambition may not be put to good use, even hard to preserve life. Weighed up the pros and cons, he chose the profession, their own life boat moored to the green eroilor guo the edge of the ancient canal.

Why also called Fu hin sea ship hall? More than two thousand years ago, Confucius traveled on a cart to travel for their claims said: "that doesnt work, I will take Fu Fu sea." Mean, if people dont accept my idea, Ill take a boat to go overseas. The ship hall is just what zhi 舠 idea of a "xuan Fu sea"?

Let a person cant help but sigh, 18 years later, has more than seventy - year - old garden again made a resign and when he prowled the equally amazing determination: abandon he garden, anchor sail, carrying the whole family headed to glamour to Shanghai to frolic in the waves. What zhi 舠 this magical boat gone, gone forever. Is the embodiment of his Fu sea hin to stay in the family home garden. To the posterity tells the story of the mood of the master and master.

The ship at the back of the hall on the northwest corner of the small building, was once he gardens landscape architecture.

Ladies, gentlemen,

Welcome to the" land of fish and rice" - - Suzhou.Suzhou ,one of the Chinese"Cities of gardens"tops all others in both number and artistry of gardens.Starting from Pijiang Garden of the Eastern Jin Dynasty,Suzhous art of gardening has undergone a history of1500 years.The concept of Suzhou classical gardens has gone beyond the city the regions of the Yangtze. The four classical gardens of Suzhou are The Surging Waves Pavilion.The Lion Grove Garden Garden .The Humble AdministratorGarden.The Lingering Garden.In a nutshell ,represent the different architectural styles of Song.Yuan.Ming.Qing dynasties.

My friends, now we are in The Lingering Garden. It is located in Liuyuan Road, Suzhou City. It was built by Xutaishi in Ming Dynasty. At that time it was named Eastern Garden.

There are three treasures in The Lingering Garden. The first treasure are Stones.The stone in front of us is the most distinguishing stone "Guangyun Peak". With a weight of 5 tons and a height of 6.5 meters, it is one of the four Wonderful Stones in the regions of the Yangtze.

The calligrapher and painter Mifu in Song Dynasty sum up the features of Lake Tai stones as the following: slender ,wrinkling , leaking , penetrating. Just take the "guangyun Peak" as an example and you will have some idea about the features of the stones. In addition, it is endowed with the personal characters of faithfulness because of its nature of stiffness and unchangeable outlook. Thus it has been worshipped by people since old time.

The second treasure is "Five peak fairy Hall" "Five peaks fairy hall" gets the reputation of "The first hall in the regions of Yangtze" . The name comes from the lines of the great poet Libai. The four Chinese characters on the plaque were written by Wuda---the famous calligrapher. Nanmu Hall used to be the place for important banquets and ceremonies, such as birthday parties, weddings , funerals .

The hall is divided into two sections__the south section and the north section. The south section host male guests, while the south section host female guests.

The hall is elegantly designed with oversized windows on east and west sides . Through the windows, the outside sceneries of the two courtyards can be extended as parts of the hall, thus to ensure enough lights into the building.

Five peaks fairy hall was built out of luxury materials. Beams and pillars are all Nanmu, which is a kind of timber only produced in China. That is also the reason why "five peaks fairy hall" is also commonly called "Nanmu Hall". The "Fossil Fish" we are enjoying is the third treasure of Lingering Garden. It is a natural marble picture. In the middle of the picture are the clutters of mountains which are Partly hidden and partly visible; below are flowing Streams,above are floating clouds; right on the middle top is a round white spot like a sun or a moon.It is a picture drawn by the nature. The marble stone has a diameter of 1 meter or so and a thickness of 15 mms . It was produced in Diancang Mountain, YunNan province. It is a wonder how such big a stone was delivered in a good condition from YunNan which is over one thousand mile away from Suzhou.

China is most famous for its elegant classical gardens.

Among these, the lingering Garden is one representative. If you would like to know more about Chinese culture, we welcome you to visit Suzhou again.

平山堂是游目骋怀的好地方。堂前古藤错节，芭蕉肥美，通堂式的敞厅之上，“平山堂”三个大字的匾额高悬，这是名闻遐迩的宋代著名政治家、文学家欧阳修贬谪扬州太守时所建。可敬的是欧公不为世俗所羁，一到扬州，就爱上了蜀岗，于是在此建堂。史载，每到暑天，公余之暇，他常携朋友来此饮酒赋诗，他们饮酒方式颇为特别，常叫从人去不远处的邵伯湖取荷花千余朵，分插百许盆，放在客人之间，然后让歌取一花传客，依次摘其瓣，谁轮到最后一片则饮酒一杯，赋诗一首，往往到夜，载月而归，这就是当时的击鼓传花。如今悬在堂上的“坐花载月”、“风流宛在”的匾额正是追怀欧公的轶事。

欧阳修最爱莲花，其后调任安徽阜阳，到任第二天，他就来到该城的西湖之滨，见湖面开阔，但杂草丛生，于是遍植瑞莲和黄杨，使西湖顿改旧观，夏日时接天莲叶，映日荷花，于是他写诗道：“菡萏香清画舸浮，使君不复忆扬州。都将二十四桥月，换得西湖十顷秋。”可见他是按照扬州瘦西湖的景致安排阜阳的山水。堂前朱漆红柱上的楹联：“过江诸山到此堂下，太守之宴与众宾欢”，是清太守伊秉绶所作，上联以山喻人，显现当年高朋慕名而至，谈古论今的盛景;下联借欧公《醉翁亭记》中句，表现欧公无法施展抱负的郁闷和乐观自适的落宕情怀。造句既佳，书法古朴，为平山堂楹联之冠。

Hello everyone, welcome to here, let me introduce to you!

丽江古城位于中国西南部云南省丽江市，丽江古城又名大研镇，坐落在丽江坝中部，丽江古城是一座没有城墙的古城，光滑洁净的青石板路，完全手工建造的土木房屋，无处不在的小桥流水。丽江古城是一座具有人文气息的小城，明亮的阳光下总会有步履缓慢上了年纪的纳西族老人悠闲踱步他们对身后的目光视而不见，不屑一顾，。丽江古城的街道依山傍水修建，铺的大多都是红色的砾岩，雨季不会泥泞，旱季不会飞灰，石上的花纹自然雅致。

大家看，现在出现在我们眼前的是木府。木府是古城内的古代建筑，原为明代丽江土

司衙门的府邸，是当时丽江地区政治，文化中心。“北有故宫，南有木府。”跨过清水汨汨的

流水小桥，突见一座木碑坊赫然立于土木瓦顶居民之间，跨进朱红的木府大门眼前豁然开朗，一片开阔的地面上巍然耸立一座金碧辉煌的宫殿，汉白玉基座雕刻精美。

丽江，一个悠闲自在的城市，我们可以在长着青苔的石板路上走走停停，看老房子檐上挂的红灯笼，我们可以在小院里的长椅上晒一个下午的太阳，一米阳光，一湾春水，一片青瓦，恢宏的气势，使人恍若置身于皇宫之内。

大家好好地享受吧！

各位游客： 你们好，欢迎你们来到钟祥明显陵，我是你们的导游。

明显陵是全国重点文物保护单位，位于湖北省钟祥市城东郊的松林山，是明世宗嘉靖皇帝的父亲恭壑献皇帝和母亲章圣皇太后的合葬墓，是我国数千年历史长河中最具特色的一座帝王陵寝。

显陵始建于明正德十四年(1520xx年)嘉靖四十五年(1566年)建成，前后历时共47年，其围陵面积183.13公顷,整个陵园双城封建,外逻城长 3600余米，墙高6米，墙体厚1.8米，红墙黄瓦、金壁辉煌、蜿蜒起伏于山岚叠嶂之中，雄伟壮观，是我国历代帝王陵墓中遗存最为完整的城墙孤品，陵园由内外逻城，前后宝城、方城明楼、棱思殿、陵恩门、神厨、神库、陵户、军户、神宫监、功德碑楼、新红门、旧红门，内外明塘、九曲御河、龙形神道等30余处规模宏大的建筑群组成，其布局构思巧夺天工，殿宇楼台龙飞凤舞，工艺浮雕美绝伦、一陵双冢举世罕见，是我国古代建筑艺术中的瑰宝。

显陵之奇特主要源于王墓改帝陵而形成的一陵双冢举世无双的孤例而弥足珍贵。显陵的墓主朱佑杬生前为兴献王，死后葬于松林山，明正德20xx年武宗驾崩，因其无子嗣，慈寿皇太后与首辅大学士杨廷和遵奉“兄终弟及”之祖训，遗命“兴献王长子朱厚熜”嗣皇帝位。年号为嘉靖，后朱厚熜为自立体系，用武力平息了长达3 年之久的“皇考”之争，其间廷杖致死17人，入狱、夺俸、充军、戎边、革职等官员达115余人，从而完成了自己的昭穆体系，这一重大事件历史上称之为“大礼仪”之争。此后嘉靖皇帝朱厚熜便将其父追尊为恭壑献皇帝，并将王墓改为帝陵，开始了大规模的改建扩建工程，直至嘉靖驾崩建设才停止。

显陵是明嘉靖初期重大历史事件“大礼仪”的产物，规划布局和建筑手法独特，在明代帝陵规制中具有承上启下的作用。其陵寝建筑中金瓶形的外罗城、九曲河的御河、龙鳞神道、琼花双龙琉璃影壁和内外明塘等都是明陵中仅见的孤例，尤其是“一陵两冢”的陵寝结构为历代帝王陵墓中绝无仅有，由瑶台相连而成哑铃状的两座隐密的地下玄宫神密莫测，一直为世人称奇。

显陵规划占地183公顷，其中陵寝部分占地52公顷，在这广阔的区域内，所有的山体、水系、林木植被都作为陵寝的构成要素来统一布局和安排。陵区后部的自然山丘为祖山，作为陵寝的依托，两侧的山体作为环护，中间台地安排建筑、九曲河婉蜒其间，前面山丘为屏山，构成前朱雀、后玄武、左青龙、右白虎的风水格局，体现了“陵制与山水相称”的原则。陵墓的最南端建有敕封纯德山碑亭一座，平面呈方形，亭已毁，内供汉白玉石碑一通，通高3.59米，宽1.15米，上书“纯德山”三个大字，碑座、碑身、碑文和碑额保存完好。纯德山东侧天子岗建有龙首龟蚨碑亭一座，俗称“山曲碑”亭，记载着陵区的范围及管理方面的内容。

陵寝外围建有高6米，厚1.6米，长达4730米，平面呈“金瓶”形状的外罗城。外罗城前端因池塘和东南砂山影响，依山就水建造歇山顶宫门一座，名新红门，面阔18.5米，进深8米，有券门三洞。门前有下马碑两座，上书“官员人等至此下马”。新红门右侧依原有天然池塘建有外明塘，外明塘后为三道御桥。过御桥为正红门，正红门红墙黄瓦，歇山顶式，面阔18米，进深7.8米，有券门三洞。进正红门神道正中毫立着高大的睿功圣德碑亭，平面布局为方形，面阔进深均为 18.3米，占地334平方米，汉白玉台基，下设石须弥座，上为重檐歇山顶，四边各开有券门，正中立龙首龟蚨睿功圣德碑。碑亭后63米处设御桥三座。

过桥便是陵区最主要的墓饰建筑，迎面为汉白玉望柱，通高12米，下为方形须弥座，柱身为六棱形，二层束腰云盘托着圆柱形有云龙纹浮雕望柱头。望柱后排列着石像生群、计有狮子、懈貂、卧骆驼、卧象、麒麟、立马、卧马各一对;武将二对，文臣、勋臣各一对，造型生动，排列有序。其后为龙风门，作为石像生的依托，龙风门设计十分精巧，为六柱三门四楼冲天式牌楼，方柱上悬出云版，上覆莲座，莲座上各雕有一尊朝天吼、正身立火焰宝珠，石墩，坊身仿木作设额枋、花板、抱框，上额枋设有门簪，方柱前后夹有抱鼓石，影壁墙下设须弥座，上盖黄色琉璃瓦，整个龙凤门不仅洁白耀眼而且金碧辉煌。

从龙凤门再越御桥便是一条长达290米的神道，该神道一反左右对称和通直的原则，作弯曲龙行状，是为龙形神道。接龙形神道是最后三座御桥。九曲河由东北向西南蜿蜒而过，河道为砖石结构，河中根据高差建有九道拦水坝。过九曲河最后一道御桥为内明塘，内明塘为圆形，直径33米，周边砌有青石护岸。塘两边各设有碑亭一座，分别为“纯德山祭告文”碑亭和“瑞文碑”亭。内明塘后，为祾恩门，面阔三间，进深二间，建有月台，前后三出云龙丹陛，门两边有琉璃影壁，影壁正面为绿色琉璃的蟠枝图案，背面为双龙腾跃，喻意藏龙护生。祾恩门外东侧，建有神厨、神库、宰牲亭等。

西侧建有神宫监，礼生乐户直房等。祾恩门后，左右为配殿，面阔五问，进深二间，前出廊。再后为棱恩殿，歇山后抱厦宫殿式建筑，面阔五间，进深四间。前出月台，石雕须弥座台基，雕栏龙风望柱。祾恩殿后为陵寝门，面阔三间、砖石琉璃结构。陵寝门后为二柱门，现仅存石柱，蹲龙战鼓，木构无存。二柱门后为石五供，现存供案和部分石雕供器。供案两侧各有碑亭一座，分别为御赐祭文碑亭和御赐谥册志文碑亭。供案后是方城明楼，方城面阔、进深皆为22.2米，设券门一道，门前有御道踏跺。门后左右设有御道台阶以供上下。方城上建有明楼，面阔、进深均为17米，重檐歇山顶，石须弥座基础，四道券门。内供“大明睿宗献皇帝之陵”圣号碑，通高4.69米。

方城后左右连接着前后宝城，前宝城呈椭圆形，东西宽112米，南北长125米。宝城内为宝顶，宝顶下为1520xx年(正德十五年)所建玄宫。宝城与方城之间建有月牙城，内有琉璃影壁一座。前后宝城由瑶台相连。瑶台为长方形，面阔11.5米，进深40.5米。后宝城为圆形，直径110米。内为宝顶，宝顶下为 1539年(嘉靖十八年)所建地下玄宫，玄宫内停放着恭喜献皇帝和皇后棺停。后宝城与瑶台之间建有月牙城，内有琉璃影壁一座。两座宝城上共有向外悬挑的散水螭首16个，设计精巧，为独特的排水系统。陵区外围沿祖山、东西砂山、案山建有显陵卫、东果园、西菜园、更铺及巡山铺等。 明显陵原始建筑和环境风貌保存完好，建筑规模宏大，陵寝结构独特，文化内涵丰厚，堪称中国帝陵的璀璨明珠。

显陵以其独特的环境风貌、精巧的布局构思、宏大的建筑规模、丰富的地下宝藏及其珍贵的历史价值而受到国家文物专家的高度重视，八八年国务院公布为全国重点文物保护单位，九九年三月国家文物局又将其作为明代唯一的一座帝陵，向联合国世界遗产委员会申报世界文化遗产，联合国教科文组织世界文化遗产委员会已投票通过，将我国湖北钟祥县的明显陵列入世界文化遗产项目。

联合国专家让.路易.卢森先生视察显陵后感到十分惊讶，将显陵称之为“神奇的明显陵”，对至今已历时120xx年仍保持完好的外逻城感到“简直不可思议”。同时对显陵的保护维修工作给予了充分肯定。

好，游客朋友们，钟祥明显陵就为大家讲解到这儿，谢谢各位的支持!

Ladies and Gentlemen: Welcome to the Summer Palace. (After the self-introduction of the guide -interpreter) I hope this will be an interesting and enjoyable day for you .

During our tour, you will be introduced to time honored historical and cultural traditions, as well as picturesque views and landscapes.

The construction of the Summer Palace first started in 1750. At that time, the Qing Dynasty was in its heyday and China was a powerful Asian country with vast territories. The monarch in power then was Emperor Qianlong. With supreme power and large sums of money, he summoned skillful and ingenious artisans from all over the country to carry out this construction work in honor of his mother `s birthday. After 15 years and one seventh of the nation` s annual revenue spent, the Garden of Clear Ripples was completed and served as a testimony to China` s scientific and technological achievements. In 1860, this vast royal garden was burnt down along with the Yuanming Yuan (Garden of Perfection and Brightness) by Angol-French allied forces. In 1888, Empress Dowager Cixi reconstructed the garden on the same site and renamed it the Garden of Nurtured Harmony (Summer Palace). Characterized by its vast scope and rich cultural embodiments, the Summer Palace has become one of the most famous tourist sites in the world.

This is the main entrance to the Summer Palace-the East Gate On top of the eaves of the door there is a plaque bearing a Chinese inscription which means “Garden of Nurtured Harmony” , whose calligrapher was Emperor Guangxu. The gate that you are now entering was used exclusively by the emperor, the empress and the queer mother. All others used the side doors.

(Inside the East Gate)

the Summer Palace can be divided into two parts: Longevity Hill and Kunming Lake .The whole garden covers an area of 290 hectares, of whih three- fourths consists of a lake and rivers .This imperial garden features 3,000 room-units and covers an expanse of 70,000 square meters with more than 100 picturesque spots of interest. The layout of the Summer Palace includes three groups of architectures: palaces where the emperor attended to state affairs, resting palaces of the emperor and empress, and sightseeing areas. Entering the East Gate we will come the the office quarters. Entering the East gate we will come to the office quarters. The annex halls on both sides were used for officials on duty.

Before the gate is her virginity and creature door, our trip to theForbidden City is over. Look at this magnificent palace, and some loathe to giveup?

游客们：这里有两口“第五泉”，一在东岸上，碑石上刻着“第五泉”三个大字;另一个在西侧池中，为雍正年间凿池时发现的，当时的人认为，这才是真正的第五泉，所以建亭于其上。大家都知道，在历史上被称作“天下第一泉”的有四个：江苏镇江中冷泉、江西庐山谷帘泉、北京玉泉、济南的趵突泉，而被称作天下第五泉的只有扬州一个。

在第五泉东面依墙筑着一块石碑，上刻“鹤冢”二字，顾名思义，这就是鹤的坟墓。大家对北宋诗人林和靖的逸事可能略知一二，传说他一生孤高自好，不娶不仕，隐居杭州孤山，喜欢种梅养鹤，有“梅妻鹤子”之说。光绪十九年，住持和尚星悟禅师在平山堂也养有两只鹤，极为珍爱，任凭双鹤戏耍自如。后来一只仙鹤患足疾而死，另一鹤悲痛欲绝，最后绝食而亡。星悟禅师深为感动，将双鹤埋葬在此，并立一石碑，上刻“鹤冢”。

各位游客，平山堂是欧阳修贬谪扬州太守时所建。可敬的是欧公不为世俗所羁，一到扬州，就爱上了蜀岗，于是在此建堂。史载，每到夏天，公务之余，他常带朋友来此饮酒赋诗，他们饮酒方式颇为特别，常叫从人去不远处的邵伯湖取荷花千余朵，分插百许盆，放在客人之间，然后让歌女取一花传客，依次摘其瓣，谁轮到最后一片则饮酒一杯，赋诗一首，往往到夜，载月而归，这就是当时的击鼓传花。大家注意看“风流宛在”的匾额，“流”字少了一点，“在”字又多了一点，大概是提醒大家做事要少一点风流，多一点实在吧。

当人们提起欧阳修时，必然会想到他的学生苏轼(苏东坡)。从平山堂往后走数米便是“谷林堂”，这是苏东坡56岁任扬州知府时为纪念欧阳修而建的，堂名取自他自己的诗句：“深谷下窈窕，高林合扶疏。”以诗的第一、二句的第二个字“谷”、“林”为堂名。

游客们：现在我们最后再去瞻仰栖灵塔。有寺庙的地方必有塔，人们常说：“救人一命，胜造七级浮屠”，浮屠是印度梵文中塔的别称。栖灵塔初建于隋文帝时，塔高九层，唐代著名诗人李白、刘长卿、刘禹锡、白居易等均曾登塔赋诗赞颂。可惜原塔在唐武宗时化为焦土。1980年鉴真大师塑像回扬州“探亲”，各界人士倡议重建栖灵塔。新建后的栖灵塔气势雄伟，成为大明寺的标志性景观。登上塔顶，扬州景观尽收眼底。

各位游客：大明寺从初建至今已有1500多年，这段历史饱经忧患，历尽沧桑，多次修葺，才有今日新貌，来之十分不易。大明寺既有美丽的湖光山色，又有古老的宗教寺庙，更有鉴真、欧阳修、苏东坡在此留下的历史印迹，观物赏景，融为一体，令人流连忘返。
